"So from now on we regard no one from a worldly point of view." 2 Cor 5:16 (NIV)...
I take this to mean that, when I see people, I am not to think of them in fleshy type thinking. In other words, I am to consider that person from a spiritual viewpoint. Thus, I am to think of their soul, their eternal destiny, etc. What a tremendous verse. We can get so caught up in exteriors, worldly things that do not really matter...looks, attitudes, fashion, etc.

Right on, Concerto. I think that everyone looks at people with a worldly point of view to some extent. We could all use the spiritual-rose colored glasses to see people as Christ sees them.
Thanks

Yes, and we know longer live by secular principles and practices, but by heavenly principles and practices; which is what and how we are to see through. We no longer accept and recognize this world, nor are we a friend of the world.
